Hi Greg,  I agree with you,… so this argument will be included? There a way
that I can to help on this?

 

Thanks

Might a --maximized=true argument be sufficient?

Hi,

                I’m developing a Desktop app, and I want start my app in a
particular state(e.g. maximized), searching on the mailing list I found this
thread:

There is no way to start a window(AWT) in a particular state in Pivot’s
current version?

 

Looking in the code I found the DesktopApplicationContext class where the
hostFrame(AWT frame) properties are assigned, there are some arguments such
as CENTER_ARGUMENT, RESIZABLE_ARGUMENT, FULL_SCREEN_ARGUMENT and so on…
Then, it would be possible to add an extra argument as "initial state" to
allow the application start with that state?

 

For example (DesktopApplicationContext.java):

...

private static final String FULL_SCREEN_ARGUMENT = "fullScreen";

private static final String INITIAL_STATE_ARGUMENT = "initialState";

…

boolean fullScreen = false;

int initialState = 0; //Normal Frame State

…

else if (key.equals(FULL_SCREEN_ARGUMENT)) {

fullScreen = Boolean.parseBoolean(value);

} else if (key.equals(INITIAL_STATE_ARGUMENT)) {

initialState = Integer.parseInt(value);

}

…..

windowedHostFrame.setExtendedState(initialState);

 

 

and use something like(e.g. maximized):  --initialState=6
 

 

Cheers,

Alejandro
